I'm the lead audience development editor for BuzzFeed News in New York, and I oversee the growth and strategy of our newsroom products and news-tech initiatives, including a daily newsletter and an award-winning news app.

Before that, I reported and produced stories for Monocle 24 and AudioBoom, created and implemented Bloomberg TV Africa's digital strategy, and was a freelance commercial and editorial photographer. I also used to co-host a morning show for the non-profit radio station 88Nine Radio Milwaukee.

I hold an MA in International Journalism from City University London and a BA in Journalism & Mass Communication from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.

I'm podcast obsessed, passionate about community storytelling, and a lover of cities and food.
